"I can’t say enough great things about Black hole in Seymour. From the coaches, to the other gym members, this place has very quickly become like family, all while training my son to be a warrior! My 9 year old loves the classes, and his confidence has absolutely sky rocketed since he started jiujitsu here. Coach Andrew really has a way with the kids to make them feel comfortable, capable, and engaged with this sport. I am so happy we landed here after being highly recommended from our neighbor, and cannot WAIT to see how far my son will take this sport. He got his first taste of competing this past weekend, and is so excited to get back on the mat to compete some more!! Thank you specifically to Coach Andrew and Coach Maddie for believing in my little firecracker, and for teaching him the strength to believe in himself!! If you aren’t winning, you’re learning, and we plan to keep learning from you all for a long time!!!"

"I’ve been training here for 6 months and I love this gym. The facility is very clean and recently upgraded to a larger space with brand new mats and strength and conditioning equipment. All of the coaches are excellent whether you’re looking to learn some self defense/get in shape, or looking to be a serious competitor. Highly recommend to anyone in the area looking to learn Jiu Jitsu!"

"Awesome place. Lots of mat space. The instructor is amazing with kids. I've been going here for over a year. Couldn't even do the warm up when I first joined and received nothing but encouragement since day one. Check them out, I think the first class might be free."
